Default I am an Hindu. Should I convert to Islam since my partner is a muslim?

Though my partner has no hang ups on this issue. But this thought just came to my mind.

No. You should convert to Judaism, because Jews are great.

you should accept your religion as well as your partner's and learn to live with each others differences. It will keep your identities intact.

Never change your belief system for anyone other than yourself. If you do, you will regret it and hold it against the person that "made you change" faiths.

You might look into Islam just to know what is about and be able to understand your partner's beliefs but ultimately religion is very personal and you should make those choices based on your own feelings and beliefs and not someone Else's

I don't think anyone should change their religion for anyone. To do so would be putting a person before your faith, which then isn't much of a faith at all, is it? Who then is your god?
I am a Christian, but I didn't become a Christian to please man. I became one because I have faith in Jesus Christ.
Hope the answer helps.

If you want to, but if your happy as you are Im sure your partner wont mind they meet you as you are so...its up to you. Do what makes you truly happy and brings you closer to your God/s.

What dose your religion say about this?
Do you agree?
Do you know what the Islamic faith says about this situation?
Dose your partner agree?
Talk with your partner.
Marriage will have Meany, Meany Meany Meany Meany Meany Meany compromises between you 2 if its going to work. You to have to figure it out, and DO NOT LISTEN to other peoples opinions that ARE BASED on THEIR religions!!!!!!

You should follow your heart. I do not believe we should join a particular faith because somebody pressures us to do so; we should join because we feel called to do so.

If you and your partner have an understanding of each other and want to carry on practicing your own religions then that is great. Unfortunatly, if you were to marry there is more than likely to be pressure from his side of the family for you to convert to Islam. Ultimately the choice is yours and if he respects you as a person he would have no problems with you continuing with your religion.

Remember no-one can force you to be live in something other than what you choose to.

No, remain Hindu if that's what you want. There are many paths to salvation, not just Islam or not just Christian. My mother is Islamic, my father is Methodist and my sisters and I are Catholic. We respect each others religion and we all go to Mass together or to Jouma together or to Church together. We include each other in our different religions.

if Ur partner doesn't have a problem with you being a Hindu why would you want to change? Just ask your self this question and you'll find the answer within yourself
